As a child enters puberty, his/her skin will begin to change how it looks and how it behaves, as hormone production increases.
The most obvious change is usually the increase of oil on the surface of the skin, which can lead to a pimply breakouts or enlarged pores with “blackheads”.
For some teens they might notice more uneven skin colour, uneven texture or their skin becoming more flaky or sensitive.
How a teen deals with the changes of his/her skin will greatly impact on the condition of their skin in future so it is very important for a teen going through puberty to develop and maintain good skincare habits early. The earlier the teen begins, the better and the less issues they will have to deal with as they get older.
The biggest challenge teens face with their continually changing skin is dealing with spots and pimples. They are selfconscious in general but now with the evolution of the ‘selfie’ this has become even more so.
When a pimple or even blackhead pops up, a teen’s first inclination is to squeeze it themselves, however it’s very important for them to know that this is definitely the wrong thing to do.
Squeezing a pimple incorrectly will more often than not result in bacteria being pushed further into the skin, causing another spot to appear in a different area of the face.
It can also result inskin inflammation causing redness and sensitivity as well as scarring.
In the case of a seriously acne skin, the scarring referred to as ‘pitted scarring’ is a long term problem that is not at all easy to address.
As every skin is different and there are different products for different skin types and conditions, it’s important that a trained professional diagnoses a teen’s skin and prescribes the best products suitable to them.
Using the wrong product can cause a whole new set of problems. The skin can become even more clogged, more irritated and more uneven!
A good start to a skincare routine is a cleanser, exfoliator, moisturiser and sun protection. Where necessary a spot treatment or corrector may also be recommended. Not only what’s prescribed is different for different skins but how to use them will also be different.
How often the teen exfoliates will largely depend on the skin type but will also depend on the ingredients used. If you over exfoliate you will again create more problems in the future by aggravating the skin leading to inflammation.
Acne sufferers should definitely be looking for products that containthe ingredient salicylic acid due to the antibacterial properties and it’s ability to get into the pores to control and scoop out the bacteria.
At such an early age, it’s a good idea to combine your morning moisturising routine with an SPF protection applied after. Teens need to be trained at an early age that unprotected sun exposure will have a detrimental effect on the texture, even skin colour and youthfulness of the skin in the future as UV rays are the biggest causes of ...
